Powers First Episode Available Online for Free

Sony’s original TV series for PSN can now be sampled via YouTube.

Sony’s original TV series Powers, which recently premiered on the PlayStation Network for PS Plus subscribers, now has its first episode available for free viewing on YouTube. Check it out above (though note that not all countries will be able to view it).

Powers is an adaptation of the comic book series of the same name and focuses on a special police division which investigates superheroes and supervillains. Christian Walker, played by Sharlto Copley of District 9 fame, is a former superhero and tension arises down the line when he finds a superhuman with the same powers he used to possess.

Thus far, the first three episodes are available on the PlayStation Store for PS Plus subscribers and eventually, the entire first season will make its way to PSN. Thus far, the series has received a weak critical reception but there’s still time for it to improve. What are your thoughts on it? Let us know in the comments.
